2011 Camry 4 Cylinder (2AR-FE) with 80K Miles
I frequently visit a friend who lives in the hills above my house. I often leave her place late in the evening when the temps are mid- to high-40s. I pull out of her driveway and head down the hill with the car in 1st gear. I'll get about 1/4 of the way down the hill and the engine revs drop, maybe the engine cuts out for a fraction of a second, and then jumps up to the normal revs and the car behaves normally for the balance of the drive home.
What might be causing this drop in revs? It's always about the same place on the hill, i.e., about the same length of time running.
